Plot: You're Scott's sister and you were dating Isaac, and were heartbroken when he left, but eventually you move on with Brett. Isaac comes back to Beacon Hills, and is jealous seeing you with Brett, so he tries to win you back by leaving cute things in your locker at school, but you throw them away, because you're happy with Brett.
"How many times do I have to tell you to stop leaving these things in my locker?"
You say, a paper rose between your fingers, as you stare at Isaac, your other hand on your hip, your neck tilted. It has been happening for a while now. Ever since he came back to town, Isaac has been acting very jealous and was doing everything possible to try and get you to get back together with him. And despite the fact that you have told him several times that you were now dating Brett and that he needs to move on like you did, he is refusing to accept it. He's acting like you cheated on him by getting together with Brett, despite the fact that he was the one who caused the end of your relationship, disappearing from Beacon Hills, leaving you completely heartbroken.
It took a lot out of you to even get out of bed in the morning on certain occassions, especially when it came around the time of yours and Isaac's anniversary. Ever part of the town reminded you of him, a bench you two sat on when he first kissed you, the coffee shop you had your first date at, everything was overwhelming. Scott, your brother, was the more hard headed one and was telling you that you should move on from Isaac and that it's clear he never loved you if he could just up and leave without even saying goodbye. But you couldn't, no matter how much you tried. Scott didn't know Isaac like you did, you were sure he loved you, that he cared.
"What's so wrong about giving the girl I love a few surprise cute things in her locker? I thought you would be happy to see me back."
Isaac's words caused you to frown. Happy? He expected you to be happy after everything that happened? Did he forget that he just disappeared? That he vanished without a trace, as if he never truly even existed? A part of you felt good seeing him again, because you always felt how that one chapter in your life was never fully closed and that you could now finally put and end to it. But what shocked even you, was how much you actually resented him for what happened. All the love you felt for Isaac was replaced by pain and heartbreak when he left, and now felt hollow after seeing him again.
"I am with Brett now, so please... Let's just, close this chapter and move on, it's better for the both of us."
That collection on words seemed to struck a cord within Isaac, his scowl deepening as soon as he beart Brett's name leave your lips. Brett was the complete opposite of your brother. He didn't expect you to just forget everything that happened with Isaac and force the door on that part of your life shut. He took his time to understand you, to give you actual advice, to hold you when you needed it and give you space when you needed it. He wasn't even doing it because he hoped you would fall in love with him, even though he had feelings towards you, and he focused on making sure you heal properly.
"Don't even mention his name... I still can't believe you cheated on me with Brett of all people."
Isaac's words felt like a physical strike. They made you recoil. Cheated? He's actually accusing you of cheating on him? His tone and the venom his words were saturated with was inches away from breaking down all the healing you worked so hard to build. You felt your bottom lip tremble ever so slightly, close to breaking down into tears in front of Isaac. Your hand raised, almost by it's own accord, without being controlled by you, an accusatory finger pointed directly at him. Your lips opened, the words you held back for so long spewing out in waves.
"Cheated? You left me! One day, you just disappeared and I didn't even get a goodbye, and now I'm the wrong one? You still haven't even appologised for all the pain you caused me!"
Isaac's eyes widened slightly. It was as if he was taken aback by your outburst. But you continued. You said all of the things you buried inside, not mincing words. You told him how much it hurt when he left, how you barely got out of bed every morning for so long. How you felt abandoned and alone, how Brett was the only one who was on your side and did his best to understand you, to help you. You kept going. Telling Isaac how you spent days, weeks, months, waiting for him to come back, to hug you again and tell you it was all just a nightmare and that he was actually right there next to you all along.
You didn't raise your voice, you didn't scream, you didn't cry. You remained calm, laying out the facts of everything you felt, and that if he didn't even care to say goodbye to you when he disappeared, you didn't care if he considered your relationship with Brett as cheating. Isaac's eyes widened further when you divulged that you were the one to kiss Brett first. That you developped feelings for him too. It took you so much time to even consider dating again, and now that you were finally happy with Brett, you were not gonna let anyone, including Isaac, ruin that for you.
You went through darkness and found your light. After telling Isaac everything that you kept in the most painful corners of your heart, you threw the paper rose in the trash, letting it join the ranks of all the other gifts he left in your locker, notes, collages of the pictures of the two of you together, all kinds of little trinkets that reminded you of your relationship with Isaac. All of that was now gone and buried. You turned on your heel, leaving a stunned Isaac looking at your retreating form as you walked with newfound determination.
"Hey baby.... How are you feeling? You look....like something happened."
Brett questioned as he opened the door of his place to your knocks. He was taken by surprise as you smiled brightly at him, immediately, without a word, wrapping your arms around his waist and burying your head in the crook of his neck, sighing contently. He was frozen for a moment, before his arms wrapped around you, and his head rested against yours. He had no idea about what Isaac has been doing, and you were gonna tell him all about it, right after this tight hug, filled with his warmth, his touch, breathing in his scent.
"You make me happy Brett.... No matter what Isaac tries to say or do, that fact doesn't change. Just like my feelings for you don't change. I love you Brett... I love you so much baby."
Those words were enough to calm Brett's pacing, which he started after he had heard you explain everything, the little things Isaac kept leaving in your locker, how he considered your relationship with Brett was cheating to him, and everything you fired back at him. Hearing the warmth in your voice, the soft reassurance, Brett's arms were wrapped around you again, echoing your words of love. Even though he was usually the tough guy, the strong werewolf, even he needed a little reassurance that your mind was only on him, that your heart danced with his still.
And the fact that you gave it to him, without making it seem like he was a lovesick puppy that constantly needed someone to hold his hand, and allowed him to still feel like the big bad wolf he saw himself as while his head layed in your lap, his eyes closed as your fingers carded through his hair, bringing him the calm that he so desperately needed in his life. He still didn't trust Isaac, but he trusted you, and that was enough to ease his worries. If there is ever a need to step in and put Isaac in his place, he would, but he was so proud of you for putting him in his place yourself, proud of your strenght, of your calm and collected attitude. You fought for yourself and your peace better than he ever could, and that made him fall in love with you even more.
